Singer MC Mong (real name Shin Dong Hyun) has continued his heated confrontation with actor Kim Min Jong by once again mentioning him in relation to an alleged illegal gambling group in the entertainment industry known as “Baduki.”
Previously, on May 18, MC Mong hosted a live broadcast through his personal social media account, where he accused MBC’s PD Note of colluding with certain individuals during its investigation. He also exposed several alleged members of an illegal gambling circle involving billions of won, including construction company Eterno chairman Cha Joon Young, along with figures identified as Chairman Park, Chairman Lee, CEO Choi, and CEO Ahn, as well as celebrities allegedly connected to the group.
During the broadcast, MC Mong specifically named Kim Min Jong as one of the alleged “Baduki” members. He also made additional claims involving the relative of a conglomerate chairman and a middle-aged actress allegedly being in a secret relationship, while further alleging that a famous actor had participated in illegal gambling activities in Japan and received tips afterward.
However, MC Mong did not provide concrete evidence to support his claims, and the truthfulness of the allegations has not been verified.
Following the livestream, Kim Min Jong and his legal representatives at Law Firm Oh Kims strongly denied the accusations, stating, “These are clearly false claims. We will confront this head-on without any compromise in order to prove our innocence. We also plan to pursue both civil and criminal legal action where necessary.”
MC Mong’s accusations did not stop there. After his account was reportedly suspended for seven days due to using a term associated with “death” during the previous broadcast, he created a new account and hosted another livestream on May 19.
During the new broadcast, MC Mong once again mentioned Kim Min Jong, Cha Joon Young the uncle of One Hundred chairwoman Cha Ga Won and singer Kim Ho Joong’s former agency CEO.
MC Mong then claimed, “What this group tried to do was search for women around me, women who didn’t even know me, and even women working in the nightlife industry, offering them large sums of money if they would share things they knew about MC Mong or even make up stories about me.”
As of now, Kim Min Jong’s side has not released any additional official statement regarding the latest allegations.
With MC Mong’s sudden accusations turning into a messy public conflict within the entertainment industry, public attention is now focused on how the controversy will ultimately come to an end.
